PIONEERING DEVELOPER + MANUFACTURER OF RESEARCH-GRADE SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
Established in 2000, Biox Systems Ltd is a pioneering UK based developer + manufacturer of research-grade scientific instruments. Customers worldwide are using our patented technology to provide faster & more accurate characterisations of bio-tissues such as skin, hair & nails, and their interactions with cosmetic, pharmaceutical & medical products.
Our products, the AquaFlux™ evaporimeter and the Epsilon™ contact imaging system measure quantities such as TEWL, SSWL, hydration, perspiration, membrane integrity, wrinkles & skin topology (micro-relief).
AquaFlux™ Model AF200 Evaporimeter
The AquaFlux™ is an evaporimeter for TEWL measurement with a unique patented technology that overcomes challenges of both open- and closed-chamber methods with a condenser that continuously removes water vapour by converting it to ice. AquaFlux™ out-performs all its competitors in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility and versatility (supported by numerous studies available). More …
- Fast, non-stop TEWL measurement
- Best accuracy, sensitivity, repeatability
- Any site, any angle, anywhere
- Versatile: in-vivo, in-vitro, skin, scalp, lips, nail, …
- Membrane integrity & 3D skin culture testing
- Traceable calibration, independently verified
- Free software updates
Epsilon™ Model E100 Contact Imaging System
The Epsilon™ integrated technology provides both image and hydration data simultaneously (suitable for both In-vivo + In-vitro measurements). It differs from similar devices in its linear and calibrated response, where every pixel in the image provides a reproducible measurement that can be interpreted in terms of hydration. Equipped with 76800 sensors the Epsilon™ can measure SC hydration with greater accuracy and flexibility than conventional single-sensor probes. More …
